Re: 530 restore

Do you have a serial number for your 530? It must be a very late 1969 model with the tach drive coming off of the cam shaft like the 570. Does your 530 have a generator or an alternator? Do you know if the engine is original, or has it been replaced?

havent checked the searal no. does have an alt but not the correct side panel with the offset like a 570 just got this tractor, my dad bought 2 new 570s when i was in high school in 72 ,quit farming in82 collecting cases and IH ,have a nice 930 wheatland, 1030, 4oo, and this 530, im trying to find my old 570,and 830 i grew up on. thanks for replying

It's puzzling because some of the very early 470/570's still had generators.... The tach drive had to be moved because of the migration from a generator to an alternator. That necessitated a recasting of the 188 diesel block. The tach drive was just incorporated into the distributor drive on the 148 and 159 spark ignition engines.....but the diesel block had to change....

It I were a betting man, I would wager Tom's 530 is the beneficiary of a engine replacement at some point and a later model engine was used that came with an alternator and cam shaft tach drive.

souds very likely, my 1971 580CK had a generator with tach drive also, but the PO had let the block frezze and break and the Cse dealer had installed a new 207 just before I bought it and it had the cam tach drive, I still have the original gen but with me running it to clean lots at night and running a heater and 6 lights the gen could not keep up so I changed it to a alt and then put a tach cable that runs from the cam drive cnt
